I have used this firm before.   It cost a little more than going through the airline freight service and in the end, they turned around and hired the airline freight service.

It was by no means a reccomendation... did you read my stones story, they muddled up my guitars with an inflatable woman... however...  When shipping a complete bands equipment for large tours of the states, 4 out of 5 times they did it with no hassle, no breakages, the did incredible deals (like aking our gear with Mettalicas one time... AND did all our carnet paperwork, even sending a guy to a gig we were doing a week before to scrabble around under our gear for serial numbers, cos of course we had forgotten them.

They wern´t cheap cheap, but they collected our shit from our garage in Portsmouth and delivered it to the first gig, the whisky in LA I believe... so.. I call that pretty good...

However... loopers... laptops and mouth organs.. thats my advice!
